Sometimes life gives us oranges; sometimes it hands us lemons. Comedian and View regular Joy Behar knows the lemonade route, but she's also thought of other options, including juggling. In When You Need a Lift, she not only adds a twist of lemon to her extra-large espresso; she taps her famous friends for stories on overcoming adversity. Among those contributing to this pick-me-up are Tom Hanks, Barbara Bush, James Earl Jones, Olympia Dukakis, Bob Dole, Richard Lewis, and Mariel Hemingway.
Joy Behar, comedian and cohost of ABC's The View, offers a follow-up to her Joy Schtick with this compilation written by 100 of her friends, associates, and role models, including Barbara Bush, Donald Trump, and James Earl Jones. Behar asked her celebrity friends to share whatever picks them up when they're down in the dumps, and as each celebrity offers his or her advice on how to cope with the blues, it soon becomes clear that most of us are driven to find solace in similar activities, regardless of who we are.
